A permittee authorized to rehabilitate migratory birds under a department permit must also possess a valid United States Fish and Wildlife Service special purpose rehabilitation permit. Other rehabilitation activities may also require a federal permit. Issuance of a permit by the department shall not exempt the permittee from the permit requirements of federal law.
No rehabilitation permit nor any provisions of sections 6244.0100 to 6244.2000 shall be construed to exempt the permittee from any local laws, ordinances, or regulations that apply to the activities authorized by the permit.
A permittee may not practice veterinary medicine as defined by Minnesota Statutes, chapter 156, unless licensed as a veterinarian.
